Shizuka Hiratsuka doesn't understand love!

"Oh? ~ Xiaojing, are you inviting me?" The tone became frivolous and complacent, as if she could see Yang No laughing like a little fox on the other end of the phone. Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded with amusement.

"Yes, yes, I wonder if our Miss Yang Noi can give me this opportunity."

"Hehe~ Since you are so sincere, Xiaojing, I will agree with all my heart~"

"Oh, you're such an acting-loving woman. Sometimes I really think, why not talk to Sister Yukiko and ask her to show you the way? Maybe you, Yang No, can also do well in the entertainment industry."

"That won't do. I have to stay with Xiaojing. If I go to act, won't I be too busy with fame and ignore Xiaojing? If Xiaojing feels lonely then, I will be sad."

"You're so bold." She shook her head in amusement. Listening to Haruno's shameless words on the other end of the phone, Shizuka Hiratsuka had no idea what to do about her best friend's troublesome personality.

"Didn't you go to see Yukino during this holiday, Haruno? Given your personality, you shouldn't have."

"Xue-no-chan, as her older sister, of course I have to take good care of her~"

"Actually, sometimes I think Yukino is happier when she's away from you."

"Oh~Xiao Jing, what were you talking about? The signal on the plane is not very good, I couldn't hear you clearly~"

"...It's nothing, just a little emotion, don't mind it." Hearing the dissatisfaction in the tone of this veteran sister-con, Shizuka Hiratsuka jokingly changed the subject.

She didn't want to be in trouble with Yang Noi after returning to Neon because of this incident.

"Xue-no, she's been pretty happy. She went back home to stay with her parents for a while, and then she went back to her own apartment."

"Oh, by the way, it seems Yukino went to Tokyo to visit your niece, a girl named Maoli Ran. It's a pity that the girl wasn't at home, so they didn't meet. That's really strange. I originally thought Yukino wouldn't make friends this age."

"Is this what an older sister should say? What do you mean Yukino can't make friends with people of the same grade?" Shizuka Hiratsuka frowned unhappily and complained about Haruno.

"Besides, didn't I tell you about that kid Xiaolan? It would be strange if Yukino didn't become friends with her."

"Yeah, if that little girl is really the same as what you said, Xiaojing, then she is indeed an impeccable good girl. Even I am a little jealous. Xiaojing has never praised me like this!" Yang Nodded with some emotion, thinking of the girl who became famous after being introduced by Hiratsuka Shizuka, Yang No said with some jealousy.

"So, Yukino has become quite good now. If I really asked you to take care of her, I'd really be worried about her life as a student."

"That's too much! I've always wanted to be a good sister!"

"Yes, yes, Miss Yukinoshita Haruno, who tries so hard to be a good sister, can you prepare some reliable gifts for Yukino's next birthday?" With a subtle tone, Shizuka Hiratsuka took out a bottle of drink from the small cabinet beside her and unscrewed it easily.

"You knew Yukino didn't like roller coasters, yet you took her to the amusement park for her last birthday. I don't need to tell you who was being too harsh."

"What? As a sister, I wanted to help my lovely sister overcome her psychological barriers~"

"Yes, yes, Miss Yukinoshita Haruno, who is the culprit of this obstacle, I hope you can come up with a gift that will satisfy your sister this year." Listening to the broadcast ringing in her ears, Hiratsuka Shizuka said with a smile.

"I'm about to land, I'm hanging up now."

"Well, have fun, Xiaojing, and remember to bring me a gift~"

"I will, I will."

Putting the satellite phone back into the compartment beside her, Shizuka Hiratsuka stretched herself and fastened her seat belt again.

"It turns out the deluxe cabin is really quite comfortable. No wonder Yukiko-san ordered it for me."

Turning her head slightly, Shizuka Hiratsuka felt a little excited as she looked at the city below which was gradually becoming clearer.

“Dubai, I’ve never been there before.”

. . .

"I shouldn't have come here." Walking on the streets of Dubai with disgust, Shizuka Hiratsuka weakly placed her hand on her forehead.

“I’ve seen so much seaside scenery”

"Really? If Mom wants something for Grandpa's relatives, why can't she just come and buy it herself? Why does she ask me to bring it? She knows I'm the worst at shopping."

Looking at the shopping catalog on her phone, Shizuka Hiratsuka felt her head hurt even more.

"I shouldn't have told Mom I was free! Why not just go back to Neon?"

After complaining for a while while standing on the street, Shizuka Hiratsuka finally fell silent and looked at the shopping list on her mobile phone without any hope.

"Forget it, I'd better find out where I can buy it as soon as possible, and then go back to the hotel to rest. I saw that the bar in the hotel is pretty good, and there are performances in the evening. It would be good to drink less to relieve some fatigue." Shizuka Hiratsuka said to herself, holding her neck and shaking it.

"Really? There are so many shops, but I don't see any that sell comics or figures. That would allow me to relax a bit."

. . .

"No, it's burning out!"

Holding four or five bags in her hands, Shizuka Hiratsuka, whose expression was beginning to turn gray, moved step by step with difficulty on the street.

Shizuka Hiratsuka once again confirmed that shopping was totally not suitable for her!

I am a woman now, but why don't I have this talent?

"Let's go to the cold drink shop we went to earlier and buy some ice cream. I need to take a break..."

"boom!"

"Eh?"

Section 25 Within twenty-five or twenty-seven steps

"boom!"

"Boom!"

"Is that a gunshot?"

Her originally dull eyes suddenly became clear. Shizuka Hiratsuka listened carefully to the clear gunshots coming from not far away and couldn't help but frowning.

"Really? Is Dubai really this chaotic? I didn't even encounter a gunfight in the Lighthouse Country, but I did here."

"And it's in the direction of the cold drink shop just now." He shook his head helplessly. Listening to the increasingly intense gunshots over there, Shizuka Hiratsuka did not flee in panic like the people around him. Instead, he turned around slowly with the bag in his hand.

"Forget it, I'd better not join in the fun. It has nothing to do with me." Shizuka Hiratsuka bent down slightly and pinched her ankle, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"I shouldn't have worn these sandals out shopping just because I was too lazy to change blood. Sneakers are more comfortable for such a long walk."

"Oh, have the police arrived? This is faster than the neon lights." Just as Shizuka Hiratsuka was rubbing her ankle, several police cars whizzed past on the road beside her.

After casually sighing at the speed of the police response, Shizuka Hiratsuka stood up and prepared to leave this dangerous place.

"Koko! Koko!"

"Eh?" The forward steps stopped instantly. Hearing the faint shouts coming from the gunshots, Shizuka Hiratsuka turned around in surprise.

"Did I hear it right? Is it true?" Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was standing still, couldn't believe her ears and had a confused look on her face.

"Huh, damn it!" Shizuka Hiratsuka gritted her teeth, picked up the bag in her hand, and ran quickly towards the location in front where gunshots and explosions were coming from.

. . .

"Tsk, this is such an unexpected reunion! I never thought I would meet you here!" Hiding her body behind a stone pillar, Shizuka Hiratsuka cautiously peeked out and looked at the place where a fierce gunfight was taking place.

"Koko, are you really in danger all the time?" Shaking her head with a headache, Shizuka Hiratsuka's eyes swept over Koko Hekmedia.

"The one lying on the ground is Falme. Is he injured? Where is that kid? Hey, so fierce. He looks so young but he is shooting at people with a submachine gun. Where did Koko trick him from?" A look of suspicion flashed across her face, and Shizuka Hiratsuka looked seriously at the man in beach clothes and the girl in school uniform who were shooting at Koko on the other side.

"Looks like he's a killer, right? Well, it wouldn't be strange for a killer to appear next to Koko."

"What should I do?" She bit her lip. Although she was confident in her own strength, Shizuka Hiratsuka had never tried to fight someone with a gun.

Not to mention that the distance between Shizuka Hiratsuka and the two killers is not too far, so Shizuka Hiratsuka has no way of saying anything like "punch fast within seven steps".

"Hey!" Just when Shizuka Hiratsuka was thinking about whether to use her momentum to divert attention from Koko's side, the little boy with dark skin and white hair rushed straight over at Koko's shout.

"What!" Shizuka Hiratsuka widened her eyes in surprise. She had never expected that the boy would be so desperate, so she immediately lowered her breath.

Regardless, this is a good opportunity!

In one breath, she entered the combat state. Regardless of the dirt on the ground, Shizuka Hiratsuka rolled out from her hiding place, passed the exploded police car next to her, and picked up a relatively intact explosion-proof shield on the ground.

"Swoosh!" Holding the explosion-proof shield in front of herself, Shizuka Hiratsuka saw the killer's position clearly through the window above. She exerted force with her right arm and threw the bag in her hand out fiercely!

"Huh?" Because his attention was distracted by Jonah's actions, by the time the man with the rifle heard the sound of breaking air, the bag containing jewelry and necklaces had already flown in front of him.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Just as the bag was about to hit the man, an explosion-proof shield drew an arc and blocked the flying bag without any danger.

"Tsk, such a quick reaction!" Shizuka Hiratsuka said with displeasure when she found that the thing she threw did not cause any damage. However, Shizuka Hiratsuka did not expect that such a simple throwing object would work.

"Step!" The long legs stomped heavily on the ground. Even though she was wearing strappy sandals that were not very suitable for strenuous movements, Shizuka Hiratsuka still burst out with a speed that was unmatched by ordinary people. Holding the shield in her hand, she quickly closed the distance between the two sides.

"This speed? Special forces?" The killer widened his eyes in surprise and instinctively raised his rifle, pointing the muzzle in the direction of Shizuka Hiratsuka.

"Enough!" Seeing herself being locked by the gun, Shizuka Hiratsuka did not panic. In the time that she had gained by throwing objects and Jonah, Shizuka Hiratsuka had already rushed to a close enough position.

"Bang!" The bullet fired from the rifle hit the explosion-proof shield held by Shizuka Hiratsuka. Feeling the feedback force on her arm, Shizuka Hiratsuka did not slow down. She took two fierce steps and rushed in front of the killer.

Concentrating her mind, Shizuka Hiratsuka stepped heavily on the ground with her front foot. With the sound of breaking tiles, Shizuka Hiratsuka turned her body sideways, staring at the explosion-proof shield with her shoulder, and hit the two killers who were holding up the shield to defend herself.

"Drink!"

"Bang!" A delicate cry and a muffled sound of impact.

Even though they had already seen through Shizuka Hiratsuka's thoughts and raised their hands to strengthen the stability of their shields, the sudden burst of power from Shizuka Hiratsuka's moves still made the two of them fly backwards uncontrollably as if they were hit by a rhinoceros, and hit the wall behind them heavily.

"Good!" Seeing that her attack was successful, Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn't help but shout and quickly retreated. She didn't see Jonah, so she had to quickly climb over the flower bed and came to Koko and Farme.

"Jing, why are you here!" Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka who turned over and landed beside her in surprise, Koko was so excited that she wanted to hug her.

"Behave yourself, you're not out of danger yet." Speechlessly looking at the woman in front of her who seemed to be unaware of danger, Shizuka Hiratsuka placed the explosion-proof shield aside, raised her hand to press down Koko's restless head, and turned to look at Falme who was lying beside her.

"Are you okay, Falme?"

"I'm fine, I just got shot in the leg. Sorry to trouble you, Miss Jing!" Falme nodded with a sense of shame and relief, and said gratefully to Shizuka Hiratsuka.

If Koko was hurt because of his own fault, Falme didn't know how to forgive himself!

"It's okay. The key is how to get out of here. I'm not very good with guns." Scratching his head with a headache, Shizuka Hiratsuka glanced at the two killers who had recovered their breath and were pointing guns at this side, and said helplessly.

"Where's Uncle Rem? He's not going to be lazy again, is he?"

"Hey, it's not a good thing to say bad things about people behind their backs, Miss Jing~"

Chapter 26: Twenty-six is ​​just like in a movie~

"Oh?"

Cautiously raising her head, Shizuka Hiratsuka glanced behind a pillar not far to the right of her position, and saw Rem, who was holding a pistol and nodding at her with a smile.

"You're lucky you came quickly!" Shizuka Hiratsuka shouted unhappily while protecting Koko's head.

Although she was confident in her own abilities, Shizuka Hiratsuka still had no interest in participating in this kind of formal gunfight. If the situation on Koko's side had not been too dangerous, she would not have risked rushing over.

"Keep your head down and come with me, Koko." While the two killers were still alert because of her previous surprise attack and did not dare to rush up directly, Shizuka Hiratsuka bent down and took Koko and dragged Falme to the back of the pillar next to Rem and the others.

"What an unexpected encounter, Miss Jing~" Rem greeted with a smile, cigarette in his mouth.

"It seems like when we first met, there was also this kind of intense scene."

"Then I have to ask you, why do you always encounter such dangerous situations?" Shizuka Hiratsuka twisted her ankle and looked at the old man who liked to speak in a sarcastic tone.

I had used too much force in the attack just now, and now that I've calmed down a little, the wear and tear caused by the strappy sandals has started to cause a burning pain.

"Oh~ It's true that we often encounter this kind of danger, but Miss Jing, your luck is not much better than ours~"

"Tsk, why are you like this, uncle? It's just that you didn't hit me in a fight before, didn't drink with me before, and then I saw you crying while hugging a pillar when you were drunk! I didn't mean it, why are you so petty!"

"Haha, I'm a mature adult. I won't hold a grudge like you said."

"You said it yourself that you were holding a grudge!" Half-squatting on the ground, Shizuka Hiratsuka carefully stretched out her head to glance at the killer who had recovered and was carefully searching for them, and she couldn't help but frown.

"Stop joking. What are you going to do with those two people?"

"They've come to our door, and we have no other choice, right?" Holding the pistol in both hands, Rem took off the headphones on his head, glanced at Jonah and Shizuka Hiratsuka twice, and finally handed the headphones to Jonah.

"Tojo will instruct you on how to escape through the headset. Everyone has already arrived. Miss and Miss Shizuka just need to follow Jonah and leave. Leave the rest to us."

"Where is Falme?" Blinking, Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at Falme who was sitting beside her because he was shot in the leg and asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, I'm watching over Falme here. Their reinforcements will arrive soon. It's better if you leave so that we can free up our hands."

"Please don't worry about me, Miss Jing, I'll trouble you to take care of Koko for me!" Looking at Hiratsuka Jing with a serious expression, Falme said in a deep voice.

"Okay, be careful." Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded gently. Knowing that Rem and the others were far more professional than herself in this kind of thing, she had no intention of making any suggestions.

"Just leave it to them without worry. This is Rem and the others' job~" She felt a chill in her palm, and Shizuka Hiratsuka turned her head to see Koko's smiling face close to her.
